RE: My Favourite Films: Jacques Tati's Play Time
yes you see, he knew exactly exactly what was coming. The not so smart generation of the future !! ; - ) Did you know also that he built a huge replica of the all new at the time Defense district for the film Playtime ! He put in lots of his budget to build it and had the intention and desire to leave it there so that new young film makers in France might be inspired and use it for their films. but of course as always with Tati, the establishment destroyed this beautiful gesture and knocked it back down to a pile of useless rubble !!!
What a tragedy. I had heard of Tativille, but I always assumed it was preserved in some state!
